Request syntax

POST /services/{serviceName}/functions HTTP/1.1

Request parameters


Parameter	Type	Position	Required	Example	Description
serviceName	String	Path	Yes	service_name	The name of the service.
	Object	Body	No		The definition of the function.
code	Code	Body	No		The code package in ZIP format.
customContainerConfig	CustomContainerConfig	Body	No		The configurations of the custom container runtime. After you configure the custom container runtime, you can use a custom container image to execute functions.
layers	Array of String	Body	No	02f81d283888f5ec63442a88fe82b260#Layer-name#1	The name of the layer.
description	String	Body	No	test_description	The description of the function.
functionName	String	Body	Yes	function_name	The name of the function.
handler	String	Body	Yes	index.handler	The handler of the function. The format is determined by the programming language that you use. For more information, see Function handlers.
initializationTimeout	Integer	Body	No	30	The timeout period for the execution of the initializer function. Unit: seconds. Default value: 3. Valid values: 1 to 300. When this period ends, the execution of the initializer function is terminated.
initializer	String	Body	No	index.initializer	The handler of the initializer function. The format of the value is determined by the programming language that you use. For more information, see Initializer function.
memorySize	Integer	Body	No	256	The memory size for the function. Unit: MB. The memory size is a multiple of 64 MB. The memory sizes of instances vary based on the type of the function instance. For more information, see Instance specifications.
runtime	String	Body	No	python3	The runtime environment of the function. The following runtime environments are supported: Node.js 6.x, Node.js 8.x, Node.js 10.x, Node.js 12.x, Node.js 14.x, Python 2.7, Python 3, Java 8, Java 11, PHP 7.2, .NET Core 2.1, Go 1.x, custom runtimes and custom container runtimes. For more information about the runtime environments that are supported by Function Compute, see Supported function runtime environments.
timeout	Integer	Body	No	60	The timeout period for the execution of the function. Unit: seconds. Default value: 60. Valid values: 1 to 86400. When this period ends, the execution of the function is terminated.
caPort	Integer	Body	No	9000	The port on which the HTTP server listens for the custom runtime or custom container runtime.

Function code packages can be provided in the following two methods. You must use only one of the methods in a single request.

Specify the name of the Object Storage Service (OSS) bucket (ossBucketName) in which the code package is stored and the name of the object (ossObjectName).
Set the value of the zipFile parameter to the Base64-encoded content of the ZIP file.
